I have only 1 diagram from you. Is there a second page that you sent?

I re-read Dave's post and I see his picture. I didn't understand what he was saying, but now I do. I can't find that area on my Jeep. I removed the under shield and I don't see it or the relay and I can't see another space they might be. I can see up behind the front bumper. I can see the back of the fog light and two horns above it So it's not there. I haven't cut an opening as pictured in Daves post.Shoots.

THAT'S why I said you might want to install a substitute. Google "Mopar part number 55115899" and go to "Allpartmopar". There is a nice picture of it.

In order to remove the headlight support, the front fascia (bumper) has to come off first. The reservoir is right up against the fascia. I thought just getting something from the junkyard that would fit somewhere would work. Actually, I've MADE one before from a Hawaiian Punch can with a brass pipe soldered into it. That was for my 37 Dodge with vacuum wipers. You'd hit the throttle and the wipers would stop!

Got it. When you said that, I wasn't convinced the one in my Jeep would be that hard to find. I kept working off several threads I have read that says all you got to do is remove the battery try and it's all right there. On these, removing the tray allows one to locate and inspect the vacuum hose, which I had to do anyway because mine was toast in that area. And I went chasing the one that looked like a bomb up next to the horn. I think I was also confused as you referred to installing an older one. The part new is pretty cheap.

So I will order this reservoir and find some other place to install it. Sorry. Just a little slow. As always, I always appreciate everybody's time.
